Whenever you gaze at Pyramids, what do you imagine really? 

Pyramids are actually a suburb of Cairo, with the fenced-off and heavily armed pyramid complex. It’s dusty, stinky, and filled with people who will hustle you blind.

Most of the people think in that way after looking at these huge but strange structures. Seriously, these architectural structures such as triangular tombs, statues & temples stood the storms of time. Egypt Pyramids Tours will reveal numerous interesting facts about these ancient arrangements.

Just go through some of the mysterious facts about Egypt & its pyramids:- 

Mystery Of The Missing Noses

While on the Pyramid Tour In Egypt, travelers might have witnessed by now that the Great Sphinx of Giza is standing tall without a nose on its face. Even many tourists asked us the same question-why the Sphinx statue & many other artifacts don’t have any noses?

Nobody has any clear answers on this but according to some research scholars, it is nothing but just vandalism done by few individuals with deranged & lunatic mindset with believes that cutting the nose will stop the statue of god from breathing.

Paid Or Slave Laborers

Contrary to the popular belief that the pyramids on the outskirts of Cairo were built by slaves used by some cruel pharaoh. In reality, they were actually built by laborers who were paid for their work. Your Egypt Holidays will help you a lot in coming out of this myth.

There is another theory that also proves that ancient Egyptian laborers were paid instead of going through some sort of forced work. Some excavated graves containing the bodies of laborers imply that the workers were honored in death for contributing to these great architectural marvels. It’s a type of humane treatment that even modern employers don’t give to their employees.

Secret Underground Tunnels

While each pyramid is theoretically connected to the Nile River via a canal, some even have underground tunnels. You will go through some while on your Egypt Pyramids Tours.

Some of the excavated tunnels are even known to the current Egyptian government and they are guarding the secrets of these fascinating underground paths to use it in time of grave national emergencies.

Real Wonder Of The Ancient World

There is no secret in this fact that the Egyptian pyramids were deemed to be one of the seven wonders of the natural world with sites located mainly around the Mediterranean & described by the western authors. 

Throughout the Egypt Pyramids Tours, our agents will give you the brief description of each and every pyramid with its current age that will clearly state that it stood tall for thousands of years and will do so for another thousand years. Clearly, stating why it’s called a wonder.

Room Temperature

Even the ancient Egyptians know the value of ventilation and know some few things about it. Not just its stylish exterior, but its interiors are also designed in such a way that the temperatures inside the pyramid also remain as cool as 20 degree Celsius at any given point of time.

The irony is that, despite the huge multi-tonne mass of this bulky structure its interiors can withstand the harsh heat in summer & cold desert nights to provide a temperate zone for the dead pharaoh so that, his body will not decompose so easily & become a god.

Pyramids All Over The World

There are numerous pyramids built by several ancient civilizations in the world. Some are built by Sumerians or Mayans. But none of them is majestic, mystic or royal enough when compared to an Egyptian version.

For example, Saqqara is another Egyptian site where you will be able to find slightly different pyramids. This one ascends in steps instead of having smooth inclines towards the flattened top. Thus, your Tours To The Pyramids Of Egypt will bust a lot of myths for you.
